Family Home Evening
Lesson
on the Godhead
by Kimberly Allen Gibbons

Last week I did a lesson on the
Godhead. I printed pictures of Christ and Heavenly Father from the online
Friend, cut them out, and wrote "Holy Ghost" on another paper. We talked
about characteristics of all three members. Then I had the family stand at
the bottom of the stairs. I put about 5 pillows between the top of the stairs
and the family room. Each family member was given a characteristic and needed
to say which member I was describing. If they answered correctly, they rolled
a die. We used a 0 - 5 die from my school teaching days. If they rolled a "5"
they had to back down to the bottom of the stairs. If they rolled 0 - 4, they
advanced that many stairs. (It was really quite funny that everyone kept
rolling a 5. My little boy would fly down the stairs on his tummy and kept
trying to roll a 5 just so he could go down again. Finally I had to scratch
out that rule.) When they finally got to the top of the stairs, the pillows
acted as "steps." Every time someone rolled a 0, they didn't move, but we all
recited the 1st Article of Faith. It was amazing that they all got to the
family room within one roll of each other. (My plan for a scenario when
someone made it to the family room way ahead of the others would be for
him/her to answer the question, roll, and then give his steps to other family
members to "help" them along. That way they are working together to get us
all to the finish line.)
